Green Christmas 2009

Well it is that time again...time to spend, spend, spend...all in the name of Christmas cheer. Last year, I had fun finding practical green items for Christmas...and I plan to do it again. Have any one in your life who is tough to buy for? Need some ideas? Send them to me and I'll try my best to find just the right gift. Here is my first idea:

Need to buy that perfect black coat for the green-geek in your life? Here is your answer:Ecotec Solar-powered jacket.

Santa Goes Solar...Kind Of!

Although I might have a creative mind...when it comes to real-world application of said creativity...I sometimes miss the mark. This is my attempt of a solar panel on my gingerbread house.

Iraqi Medical Center Goes Green

In a country where four-six hours of continuous power is rare, The Ameriya Clinic in Baghdad now has continuous power. It's source...SOLAR power. Why doesn't the entire Middle East use solar? Everytime I've been in Iraq it has been hot and sunny!

Green Christmas List...Continues

I LOVE TO BBQ. I can't think of too many things I don't like to throw on my BBQ. I've also upgraded my BBQ to a Weber Genesis. Now I have even more reason to throw pieces of meat and fresh veg onto my piping hot grill until they get a nice and charred. YUMMY! My current home in Italy has motion detecting lights outside with compact fluorescent lamps. This makes me happy, but they really don't help me out around the magic-making area...my Weber! So, I'd like to add this fantastic item to my Green Christmas list. A must for all men.

This is a solar-powered, LED BBQ grill light. At $58, I think it is a pretty good bargin. I guess the only thing to talk about now is Charcoal v. Propane? I'm a propane man!
